About Wenxian Zhang
About Ilan Alon
Under the label of “the socialist market economy with Chinese characteristics”, the Chinese Government has made a firm commitment to economic reform, though still retaining tight political control. Thus, under conditions of liberal economic systems and autocratic rule, a new capitalist system is emerging in China; its top companies are managed by private entrepreneurs, government bodies or a combination of both.
This book, presented in an easily accessible format, fills an important gap in the growing literature on China in the global economy and provides a research reference tool on China's top companies. It offers a comprehensive directory listing of the Top 100 corporations in China, thus enhancing the research potential on China for students, researchers and businesses is alike. As a general reference guide to the Chinese economy, A Guide to the Top 100 Companies in China provides up-to-date and comprehensive coverage of the top Chinese enterprises. Corporations from Hong Kong and Taiwan that conduct significant business in China are also included.

“This new reference book providing detailed descriptions of the top 100 major business enterprises in China is a companion book of the recently published Biographical Dictionary of New Chinese Entrepreneurs and Business Leaders (by the same editors). Together, these two publications, provide in-depth and up-to-date information for the studying and understanding of the fabric of the business sector of China.
Since much of the information about the top 100 companies in China is not easily found in one place and written in English, this book will undoubtedly serve as a valuable reference source for anyone interested in learning more about the most influential corporations in China. According to the Chinese edition of Fortune magazine the total revenues of the top 100 companies in China amount to 32% of China's GDP in 2007. As a whole these companies are an important force for China to become an emerging economic power of the world in the 21st century.” |

“A unique book-length reference tool, for researchers and business leaders alike, this guide to the fast changing and emerging corporate environment in China fills a significant gap and provides a systematic and well researched treatment of the top one hundred Chinese firms, often termed the ‘Dragon multinationals.’ Bringing together a diffused and complex information database into a reasoned single source publication is an accomplishment that will find a responsive chord among analysts and practitioners of the Chinese business world.” |

“To many Westerners, the Chinese economy is a puzzle. While Biographical Dictionary of New Chinese Entrepreneurs and Business Leaders focuses on individuals as key players, this companion work highlights China's top 100 companies in terms of their respective background, corporate structure, products and services, challenges and business strategies, and capital assets. Once you put the dots (key individuals) and the spheres (top companies) together, you'll get a better picture of the Chinese economy. Highly recommended for anyone interested in doing business with China or research on contemporary China.” |
